A History Of The Productions Of The Little Theatre, 1933-1935, Demarcus Brown Jan 1935

A History Of The Productions Of The Little Theatre, 1933-1935, Demarcus Brown

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The growth of interest in drama and the realization of the educational value of dramatics has developed a new place for the college theatre. Pacific Little Theatre was organized eleven years ago to fulfill a definite need and has since grown slowly and steadily into a most active producing unit, serving both school and community. Indeed Pacific Little Theatre can be taken as an excellent specific example of the contribution which can be made to campus and community life by the college aside from its main function as fundamental ground for students in the theatre arts.

The Contributions Of David Belasco To The Theatre, Betti Murphy Bergs May 1934

The Contributions Of David Belasco To The Theatre, Betti Murphy Bergs

Bachelors’ Theses

A thesis treating of David Belasco must, of necessity, be built around his realism in his productions. However, so many authors have spoken of him from only that angle, that it would be futile and absurd to devote more time and writing to it. Therefore this thesis shall touch upon his realism only insofar as it is concerned with the subject on hand.

The purpose of this thesis shall be to present a survey of David Belasco and his productions in New York. Obviously a background for his theatrical pursuits must be given.

The Social And Moral Principles In The Dramas Of Manuel Tamayo Y Baus, Sylvia Potuondo Apr 1934

The Social And Moral Principles In The Dramas Of Manuel Tamayo Y Baus, Sylvia Potuondo

Bachelors’ Theses

Of Tamayo y Baus it may be said as of the poets, that he was born and not made a dramatist. A friendly biographer, who lived in intimate relation with him, tells us that this great genius, like the gods or old, always appeared to him enveloped in a cloud. His actions were ever in conformity with his art-- even his death was as if practiced and rehearsed in anticipation, but on reading his critics we learn how very human was his life.


Barter, Otterbein University Mar 1934

Barter, Otterbein University

1907-1958 Productions

In Barter we have portrayed a New Testament theme with the utmost respect and vividness. It is a very pathetic human story, evolving around the great betrayal of Judas and made to play its way across a stage already set for the greater drama of Calvary. The author shows how love and respectability are bartered for power and place at the very time that the life of Christ is being bartered for mankind. --Irish Catholic

The Technique Of Shakespeare's Early Comedies, Mary Alice Procissi Jul 1933

The Technique Of Shakespeare's Early Comedies, Mary Alice Procissi

Bachelors’ Theses

In this thesis I have attempted to trace the dramatic technique of the early comedies of Wiilliam Shakespeare. As a setting for the development of my thesis, "The Technique of Shakespeare's Early Comedies" I have given a brief history of the rise of the Shakespearean drama, showing the relation of the early dramatists to Shakespeare as a writer of comedy, including also a sketch of the Elizabethan theatre. Under the definition of the term technique, I include chiefly a division of his plays into acts and scenes, character drawing, source of plot and treatment of plot.

Much Ado About Nothing, Otterbein University Jun 1933

Much Ado About Nothing, Otterbein University

1907-1958 Productions

Much Ado About Nothing is a comedy by William Shakespeare thought to have been written in 1598 and 1599, as Shakespeare was approaching the middle of his career. The play was included in the First Folio, published in 1623.

By means of "noting" (which, in Shakespeare's day, sounded similar to "nothing" as in the play's title, and which means gossip, rumour, and overhearing), Benedick and Beatrice are tricked into confessing their love for each other, and Claudio is tricked into rejecting Hero at the altar on the erroneous belief that she has been unfaithful. At the end, Benedick and Beatrice …

The Social Position Of The Actor, Maxine Schlingman May 1933

The Social Position Of The Actor, Maxine Schlingman

Bachelors’ Theses

In writing this thesis the author is endeavoring to determine the actor’s social status as the theatre has developed. Taking into consideration the outstanding steps in the general stride of theatrical progress, the author has attempted to prove that as the theatre itself becomes degenerate, as audiences desire low forms of spectacle, the actor is not respected.


Max Reinhardt: A Study Of A Regisseur, Pearl M. Rogatz May 1933

Max Reinhardt: A Study Of A Regisseur, Pearl M. Rogatz

Bachelors’ Theses

Max Reinhardt is the epitome of all great art in the theatre. To him we owe the recreation of the importance and necessity of a knowledge of stagecrafts, the glorification of the dance, the beauty of exquisite costuming and the inspirational effect of music. Germany could not have reached such great heights in world theatre without Max Reinhardt, nor could her dramatic art have enjoyed such widespread fame. Others have been mere followers of the great Reinhardt for nothing accomplished on the German stage is so far removed that it cannot be traced back to this great name in the …

David Garrick And Edmund Kean At The Drury Lane Theatre In London, Dorothy Seegers

Bachelors’ Theses

Fame and the actor. All art is a study of life; but there is only one art in which the reward is of life. The poet, the painter, the writer, and the actor, all study and portray truths of human life, the beautiful in universal emotions of mankind. However, the artist of the pen or brush must submit his work to the test of time, to prove its power, its universal appeal or approbation, and thus, through the years, increase or diminish the fame of the creator. The only art in which the artist may glory in his own triumphs …

A Thesis On Shakespeare, Literature's Master Dramatist, Hilda Mary Armstrong

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis, submitted in partial fulfillment of requirements for a Bachelor of Arts degree in Education, presents a survey of the life and dramatic works of William Shakespeare, situated within the broader history of English drama. The thesis traces English drama's origins in medieval Catholic Church miracle plays and moralities through the development of Bible drama, interludes, and early English comedy and tragedy, before turning to the Elizabethan stage on which Shakespeare wrote.

A biographical account of Shakespeare's life at Stratford-on-Avon and London is followed by a description of the physical conditions of the Elizabethan theatre, including stage construction, scenery, …
